HydroDermabrasion Facial: Perfect for Sensitive Skin Types
As the prominence of the beauty industry grows, and our knowledge of skincare expands significantly, it can feel like there are an overwhelming number of professional facial options at your disposal. One of the newest innovations hitting the industry is a service we like to call hydrodermabrasion. This process elevates your skincare routine and has you saying “Goodbye!” to years of sun damage, fine lines, and other skin concerns you may have.
Gentle enough for sensitive skin, but effective enough to conquer a number of skin conditions? That’s what we like to hear! Let’s dive into the world of hydrodermabrasion and how it can potentially impact your problem areas and skin concerns.
What is hydrodermabrasion?
Hydrodermabrasion is a revolutionary way to exfoliate your skin. This anti-aging process utilizes a potent solution to remove dry skin while simultaneously delivering a nutrient rich serum to the surface of your newly exfoliated skin. If this process sounds familiar, it is strikingly similar to the facial treatment known as microdermabrasion; however, this facial uses a liquid solution instead of small crystals to treat your skin concerns.
How does hydrodermabrasion work?
Customized directly to your skincare needs, a potent solution is curated to give you the best possible results by improving both your skin tone and your skin texture. That’s right - this treatment is made just for you!
But, how does it work?
As the solution is placed in the hydrodermabrasion tool, your skin gets exfoliated before being coated in a cocktail of hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants to help along the skin resurfacing process. The combination of these two actions creates the perfect conditions for your skin to thrive and work its way to being plump and beautiful without the need for strong chemical peels.
Who is eligible for a hydrodermabrasion treatment?
Everyone! While we believe a hydrodermabrasion facial is the best solution for those with sensitive skin, this process is also great for all skin types – even individuals with dry skin and oily skin. If you have any skincare concerns, or if you’re unsure of how a medication may interfere with this facial treatment, make sure to talk to your esthetician before booking your service.
What are the benefits of hydrodermabrasion?
Similar to microdermabrasion, there are a number of benefits to hydrodermabrasion that people can enjoy. We think this process can really make a difference for those who struggle with mild acne, fine lines, dark spots, acne scars, as well as those who want to improve their uneven skin texture.
If there is not a specific skin concern you have, this facial treatment is a great anti-aging service that helps keep a healthy, dewy glow to the skin.
What to expect from the process of hydrodermabrasion
As professionals, we love when a client comes to their session well informed and prepared for their service(s). As such, we’ve created this brief guide so that you know exactly what to expect during your hydrodermabrasion process.
To begin, your face will be cleaned to remove any surface dirt and oil. Once cleaned your esthetician will begin the process by activating the machine and using an exfoliating tip to remove dead skin from your face. During this method of mechanical exfoliation, your esthetician may choose to apply a light chemical peel to help resurface and chemically exfoliate the skin. Next the handpiece will change from an exfoliator to a tool that distributes solution to the skin before sucking it up with the dead skin and dirt clogging your pores. Lastly, a hydrating formula will be applied to round off your treatment and leave you leaving the appointment with a radiant glow.
Customized add-ons based on your skin concerns
One of our favorite parts of skincare is that all the best products and treatments should always be customizable. After all, not everyone has the same skin with the same skincare needs so why shouldn't each treatment be custom-built to suit the needs of each client? Thankfully, hydrodermabrasion sees the need to be customizable and allows you to alter your session in a way that benefits your skin the best. Talk to your esthetician about ways to elevate your treatment experience with add-ons and personalized treatment.
Other common questions about hydrodermabrasion
You can find a lot of helpful information on our website, however, here are some of our FAQ’s on the process:
How long do results last from this facial treatment?
The longevity of your treatment depends on what conditions you are treating – the good news is that you can always come back and refresh your treatment as the results begin to fade! Your skin is refreshed immediately after your facial, and will last for a couple weeks. For more intensive concerns, multiple sessions are needed before seeing noticeable results.
How often should you receive a hydrodermabrasion facial?
In most cases, a few sessions will be needed before your skin concerns are completely remedied. Once your skincare goal has been achieved, we suggest speaking with your esthetician about the frequency in which you should return to keep your glowing skin.
